After a promising debut, put a disappointing second run behind him when thrashing rivals on third start over 1m at Chelmsford in January making all. Pedigree offers plenty of hope of staying and opening mark looks fair for stable in top form.

Improved last autumn when stepping up to 1m and got off the mark in soft ground Yarmouth nursery on seventh start. Gelded since but runner-up has won this week so claims if staying this 3f longer distance.

Too green to do himself justice on debut, but much better since and off the mark at third attempt in first time cheekpieces over 1m4f here in January. Opening mark looks fair given how that race has worked out and looks sure to go well.

Three runs as a two-year-old all over 7f culminated in a win at Southwell. Type to do better at this longer trip and yard getting into swing now. Market should reveal a bit more in this stronger contest.

Solid efforts up to 1m2f last season and chased home some promising types last two runs. Related to a winner on this surface so switch to AW should be fine. and the extra furlong also a plus. Solid player on paper.

Some promise on AW debut but floundered on heavy ground at Nottingham second start last autumn. Hard to assess with confidence but step up from 1m a big help and market may reveal more.

Better on the last of his three runs last term but that was a falsely run race and he may have been a touch flattered. Now goes handicapping at much further and opening mark looks a touch on the high side.

Forecasts

Damage Control (5/2), Cedar Cage (11/4), Summit Reach (9/2), To Nathaniel (5/1), French Asset (8/1), Sword Beach (10/1), Locked N' Loaded (12/1), Kings Creek (40/1)

Verdict

Some promising young stayers here who will likely be found in better races as the year goes on. A narrow vote goes to DAMAGE CONTROL who bumped into some nice prospects last season and the extra yardage will be no problem. To Nathaniel beat some future winners gamely here when last seen and is a big threat with more surely to offer while Summit Reach is another who commands plenty of respect.
